product description
An essential handbook for actors-a modern classic-in a newly updated edition.
Since its original publication, " Acting as a Business" has earned a reputation as an indispensable tool for working and aspiring actors. Avoiding the usual advice about persistence and luck, Brian O'Neil provides clear-cut guidelines that will give actors a solid knowledge of the business behind their art. It's packed with practical information-on everything from what to say in a cover letter to where to stand when performing in agent's office-including:
-How to craft a winning theatrical resume
-The most effective ways to join the performer's unions
-Tactics for getting an agent
-Strategies for finding work in the theater, on daytime television, and in independent films
-Navigating the different customs and cultures of New York and Los Angeles
O'Neil has updated "Acting as a Business" to keep up with the latest show-business trends, including how best to use the Internet, making this new edition no actor should be without.
